Massachusetts S2680 aims to enhance public health and safety standards in communities near aging nuclear power plants and high-level nuclear waste.

Massachusetts S2680 seeks to improve public health and safety standards in communities around aging nuclear power plants and high-level nuclear waste dump sites. The bill mandates the designation of certain areas as "nuclear power plant areas," specifically those within a fifty-mile radius of any nuclear power plant or inactive nuclear power plant storing nuclear waste. This includes communities near plants storing spent nuclear fuel or high-level waste until the waste leaves the site. The bill targets active and inactive facilities to ensure comprehensive safety measures are in place.
